Dot FR Domains

The Dot FR ccTLD is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be a great choice to connect with tens of millions of World Wide Web users, as a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal means for you to reach them.

The domain name extension was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and businesses located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active domains, the dot FR domain extension is among the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to order a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that controls this TLD, has special restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain have to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting providers, in particular resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel interface – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
